Those are tuch wondsr-ful timet.A SUGGESTION TO DENTONWe wl.-b to make a tuggettion to l'rof.Denton. In hit lecturo on Jesus, ha maintaint tne position tbat tbe "Savior" wastaken from tbo cross alive, was resuscitated, appeared in tbe flesh to the disciples,and was taken with a fever at tbo residence of Joseph and died of tbat disease.The ttory don't bang together well. It itnot a reasonable position that after Jesusbad been nailed through the feet to thecrott, he walks! about the city of Jerusalem. We do not'know what sited nailswore used or whether they wero of Iron,but we are ture the wounds in his feetwould have mid a bis walking apparatusvery tore. If, now, Denton would Interpolate into hit lecture tbit passage bewould add much to itt force: "Lookingfrom tbe window of Joseph's bouse it Isprobable Jetus taw Wary go to tbo tombtbe next morning, In all probability,influeacad by a desire to ipoakto her, Jesus took tho crutches Joseph hadfurnished him with tho gardnor't clothes,and hobblod out to soo bur. She wasaomowhit astonished at his appearance,and naturally believed him a gbost ontwo sticks. Jctut told her to toll bis disciples tbat ho wanted to see them andwould moet them at Nar.irelb. The disciples objocted; but finally an arrangement was mado for a meeting in Jerusalem on the night of tbo third day, whenJesua appoared in tbolr midst. After behad returned to his chamber in Jnioph'thouse his feet became sorer nnd sorer.Finally lockjaw set in and resulted In his death. Joseph, afraidfor his own soke, to tell thnl be had entertained Jesus after ho had escaped deathon the cross, buried the body secretly inhit garden." "Wo submit to a candid.world this passage as hotter thanDenton's on the sstno subjoct. Lockjtwis a better disease than fever to use in disposing of Jesus. Fover it is truo mighthavoensued from the ovcllement which noioubt resulted from hanging on the cross,but the lockjaw idea lockjaw resultingfrom soro feot Is so probable a diseasethat its uso in Denton's lecture would beono of tho happiest of hits. Tnis addedto tho crutch idea would make Denton'saccount of the oicapo of Jesui from thecross so plausible, the story told by tboEvangelists would bo knocked withoutditllculty into a cocked hat and Christianity would i'umoJiatety tapplo to its full.A NOI1LE SACHIF1CE.When tho cry of distress wont up fromMemphis when it was flashed over theland that men, wocion and children Inthat peslilonco stricken city woro suffering and dying for want of nurses, MurtbaStephenson, of Towanda, Illinois, a girlnot twenty yean of ago, in tho bloom ofyouth and health, was visiting friends inIlloomington.
